What's buzz-worthy: Topps' new high-end line hits the court with a mix of past and present stars together in a release that's nearly all hits and with a number of firsts for tennis card collectors such as racket knob Relics and more.

Keep reading for more and a full gallery of images.

The Basics: There will be one base card (/99) and one parallel from a 100-card set along with the hits in this one. Parallels will include Purple (/35), Blue (/25), Red (/15), Gold (/10), Green (/5) and 1/1 Platinum cards just like in other Royalty releases.

Relics will include jumbo rookies, stars, Regalia, Jewels and Prodigious Pairings sets with Blue, Gold, Green and Platinum parallels at the same volumes. There also will be The Grip (/5) cards with a 1/1 Platinum parallel as well as 1/1 racket knob Relics.

Autographed Relics will be found in six sets  -- rookies, Regalia, Superior Triumph, jumbo booklets and 1/1 racket knobs. These will have Blue, Gold, Green and Platinum parallels at the same volumes except for the books, which will only have Green and Platinums, and the knobs that will stand alone.

For autograph-only cards, there will be 12 sets (same four parallels) and they will include rookies, Imperial, Ambassadors, Superior, Influential and Pursuit of Greatness for starters. Those will be joined by five sets with only a 1/1 parallel beyond the basic card -- duals, triples, The Coronation, Royal Decree and The Time Is Now. A quad-auto book also will be in play with Green and 1/1 versions awaiting some collectors.
